Birders - Tales of a Tribe

Cocker, Mark

1st paperback edition, vg clean crisp copy, no previous owner marks, looks unread. Highly acclaimed book from Mark Cocker, who, since 1972, has been a member of a community of obsessional people who sacrifice most of their spare time, a good deal of money, sometimes their chances of a family, even occasionally their lives, to watch birds. Birders is the story of this community, of its characters, its rules, its equipment and its adventures - many of which are hilariously funny. Birders is also a work of love - the story of what birds can do to the human heart. Cocker is undoubtedly the best contemporary writer on birding issues - BIRDING WORLD
